Oh ok. Thank you @TheAutumnWind Appreciate the added video showing the results. Going to explore both options, vinyl and plasti dip, to see the cost and quality comparisons.

Plastidip is cheaper but Vinyl is a better product IMO. The only upside to dip is that it can be "repaired" if cut or torn.

You are 100% correct. I am trying to get the most durability for the price for whichever product I go with. I spoke with a guy I work with who has a murdered Tahoe and he said he had his bumpers powder coated in gloss black for $130 each. He also stated that he had heard the plasti dip would contract a little if left in the sun for days at a time. My vehicle unfortunately sits outside in the sun like that. I am off on Monday and I'm going to call the local vinyl company for costs to do it first. I know I can do the plasti dip for $50 or less. @Donnie Yukonie
